Driver Guides

We've been offering exciting, professionally-run guided tours for nearly ten years now (it's actually the rootstock from which we grew).

In 2010 we remain at your disposal to… Explore your clan lands and castles. Get off the beaten track. Touch the ruins. Feel the wind! Expand your knowledge of the Fraser and Mackenzie lands near Inverness, as featured in Diana Gabaldon’s ‘Outlander’ novels. Examine Loch Ness, Culloden Battlefield and Cawdor Castle on a shore excursion from Invergordon or a day trip from Inverness. Exchange the driver’s seat for the passenger seat. Let us deal with driving on the left, the roundabouts, narrow roads and avoiding sheep. Let us show you Scotland!   See comments on Alastair Cunningham as a guide on Trip Advisor.
We offer tours in English, French and German. Most of our clients are small groups of up to seven, but we also cater for larger groups if required. In all our tours you will be looked after by a trained guide who knows the country well.
Clan lands and Clan castles.		Throughout Scotland there stand remnants of the 'Age of the Clans'. Some castles are conveniently located near main roads and railway stations; most are ruins in remote glens. We specialise in showing you these castles, explaining how life was then, understanding the building, imagining a little. Monuments and graveyards are often more difficult to track down; but if we don't know them already, then we'll find them and we'll take you there.

Diana Gabaldon's Outlander Places.

Well, the script for the Outlander film has been written! Jamie Fraser and Claire will be on our screens quite soon. Meantime, if you want to see a real stone circle, a remote 16th century highland chapel, a 17th century farmhouse (quite like Lally Broch), a holy well, the place where Claire met the prophetess, the coffin of the 'Old Fox' himself, then let us know. We'll take you there.

Shore excursions from Invergordon, day trips from Inverness

The number of cruise ships visiting Invergordon steadily grows; so do the people choosing our shore excursions. We have a good idea now of what people enjoy in their short time here (and, importantly, how to avoid the crowds when a large ship is in port!).

The most popular tour includes Culloden Battlefield, the Clava Cairns, Cawdor Castle and Urquhart Castle by Loch Ness.  We can also divert here and there to accommodate individual interests or when photo opportunities - like Highland cows or basking seals - present themselves.

Touring Scotland

Most people come here for eight or nine days. You don't need a guide in Edinburgh where we can point you in the right directions before you arrive. But for the six or seven days when you are touring, a driver/guide will:

Answer your questions Explain what you see as you go Plan the day, drive and navigate Introduce and comment on castles and visitor attractions Take you off the route for interesting views, photos or good lunch spots
He/she will meet you at your hotel or at the airport. Anywhere in Scotland.
	Costs The costs of a day trip (including petrol, insurance and taxes, but not lunch or entrance fees) are as follows: Cost: Up to three people - GBP 295 4 People - GBP 350 5 - 7 People - GBP 390 7 – 15 People - GBP 630
